<b>TEACHER & STUDENTS’S ACTIVITIES</b> <b>CONTENTS</b> <b>SUPPLEMENTS</b>
<b>I – WARM-UP</b>

mountain nest
king
mumy banana

read aloud the given sentences (page 29)
<b>III – GRAMMAR</b>
<b>1. The simple present (Review)</b>
+ Form : S + V / V-s (V-es)
+ Usage :
The simple present expresses the idea that
an action is repeated or usual . The action can
be a habit, a hobby, a daily event, a scheduled
event or something that often happens . It can
also be something a person often forgets or
usually does not do .
Ex : The train leaves every morning at 8 a.m.
They usually go to school by bike .
The simple present is also used to tell the
story in the past . It makes the story more
vivid .( Present simple indicating past time)
<b>2. The present continuous (Review)</b>
+ Form : S + am / is / are + V-ing
+ Usage :
It expresses the idea that something is
happening now, at this very moment . It can
also be used to show that something is not
happening now .
Ex : Are you sleeping ?
<b>Exercise 1. </b>
- Get pupils to do Ex 1 individually and then
find a partner to check their answers with
- Explain and give the correct answers :
1 – invites / 2 – sets / 3 – gets / 4 – waves / 5 –
<b>3. The present perfect (Review)</b>
+ Form : S + have / has + V3
<b>3. The present perfect (Review)</b>
+ Form : S + have / has + V3
+ Usage :
It is used to say that an action happened at
an unspecified time before now . The exact
time is not important . So we can use the
present perfect to describe our experience .
We can also use this tense to say that we have
never had a certain experience . It is not used
to describe a specific event .
Ex : I have seen that movie twenty times .
I think I have met him once before .
It shows that something started in the past
and has continued up until now .
Ex : I have had a cold for two weeks .
We can use all these present tenses in
telling stories (which are often concerned with
past events) to make the stories more
interesting .
<b>3. The past simple : (Review)</b>
+ Form : S + V2 / V-ed
+ Usage :
It expresses the idea that an action started
and finished at a specific time in the past
Ex : I saw a horror film last night .
It is used to list a series of completed
actions in the past .
Ex : He arrived from the airport at 8, checked
into the hotel at 9, and met the others at 10.
It is used with a duration which starts and
stops in the past .
Ex : I lived in Hue for 2 years .
It can also be used to describe a habit
which stopped in the past . It has the same
meaning as “used to”
Ex : They never went to school . They always
skipped their class .
<b>4. The past continuous : (Review)</b>
+ Form : S + was / were + V-ing
+ Usage :
The past continuous indicates a longer
action in the past was interrupted . The
interruption is usually a shorter action in the
simple past or a specific time .
Ex : I was watching TV when she called .
Last night at 6 pm, I was eating dinner .
It is used to express the idea that both
actions were happening at the same time . The
actions are parallel .
Ex 1 : I was studying while he was making
dinner .
Ex 2 : When I walked into the office, several
people were busily typing, some were talking
on the phones, the boss was yelling directions,
and customers were
Waiting to be helped .One customer was
yelling at a secretary and waving his hands .
Others were complaining to each other about
the bad service .
Get pupils to do exercise 2 individually

<b>5. The past perfect : (Review)</b>
+ Form : S + had + V3
+ Usage :
- It expresses the idea that something occurred
before another action expressed in the past
simple . It can also show that something
happened before a specific time in the past .
Ex : I had never seen such a beautiful beach
before I went to Hanoi .
- It is used to show that something started in
the past and continued up until another action
in the past .
Ex : We had had that car for 10 years before it
broke down .
